Any ideas

[filly]

I am due to cook a Gammon joint at the weekend.
Does anyone have any idea about what I can coat it with before cooking that doesn't include Sugar of any sort.
Thanks in advance.

I never put anything on meat other than a light coating of fat or oil if it seems rather lean. Modern meat has far less flavour than half a century ago, of course, as the animals have a restricted diet, but I still don't see the logic of putting sugar on it.

I just straight roast it

I slow cook gammon joints in my slow cooker in sugar free apple Tango!

I do it like @Rachox but I use Diet Coke, or if I roast it - half way through I brush it with a thin layer of mustard, mix some rapeseed oil with Chinese 5 spice and a little bit of ground cloves and brush that on

If you like the taste, you could score it, stud it with cloves, add your fat of choice, and roast it that way.
